How millions of computers are addressed with just 32 bits?
Internet addresses of computers are currently covered by Internet Protocol version 4 (IPv4), which has a 32 bit address space.Imagine you had only 1 bit long addresses. Then you could have only 2 different addresses - address 0 and address 1. But if you had 2 bit long addresses, you get 4 possible addresses - 00, 01, 10, 11. If you had 3 bit long addresses, you would have 8 possible addresses - 000, 001, 010, 011, 100, 101, 110, 111. Every time you add a new address bit, you double the number of addresses possible.1 bit = 2 addresses2 bits = 4 addresses3 bits = 8 addresses4 bits = 16 addresses5 bits = 32 addresses...Since each address bit doubles the number of possible addresses, a 32 bit address space covers 232 possible addresses, or over 4,000,000,000. And this is only for unique addresses that the whole world can use; many computers are in private networks (inside corporations, for example) and do not need an external IPv4 address. They talk to the outside world through a few routers which DO have IPv4 addresses. So a company might have tens of thousands of computers, but only a few dozen IPv4 addresses that are assigned to the routers they have connected to the internet.Even so, all 4,000,000,000 of the IPv4 addresses have finally been allocated and will be used up over the next several months. This means that the internet will need to migrate to a newer addressing version, IPv6. IPv6 uses 128 bit addressing. 2128 is about 3.4x1038 addresses. That's 3,400,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000 addresses. They should last us a while.
How is an IPv6 IP address used that begins with 2000?
Global Internet addresses that begin with the Internet Protocol (IP) addresses 2000. An IP address is a sequence of numbers that can identify your computer; there are 128 bits in an IPv6 address.
Can IP address192.168.0.101 be routed to the internet?
No. That address is an RFC1918 address. There are sets of IP space reserved for private use. These ranges are 10.0.0.0/8; 172.16.0.0/12 192.168.0.0/24. Any address that fall within these ranges are by convention not routable on the internet. Each address on the internet has to be unique. There are only 4,294,967,296 possible addresses theoretically possible with IPv4. That sounds like a lot, but with over 1 billion computers worldwide, and another billion expected by 2014, this is likely to be exhausted at some point in the not too distant future. The solution to this problem is called NAT or Network Address Translation. Basically it allows you to create your own network (not directly on the internet), and then use one (or several) public addresses to communicate with the internet. Since more then one person can have the same address (for example: 192.168.0.1) the addresses cannot know about each other on the internet, as they would conflict. These addresses are kept as internal, and most routers (at least properly configured routers) on the internet will not pass such an address to the internet.

Is it possible to have a private and a public network address at the same time?
Using NAT (NETWORK ADDRESS TRANSLATION) can make it possible to connect to Internet with Public IP Address at the Internet Gateway while Computers internally will use Private range of IP Addresses.
What is an IP code?
The proper name for IP Code is IP Address (internet protocol). IP Addresses are used to identify computers, and who is on them. IP Addresses are like an address on your house. People and the government can trace your IP Address and locate where you live.
